in my pattern i give you directions with illustrations on how exactly i created this look on the heart.

oh and yes, that quilting you see on top of my quilt, done by yours truly. first time ever btw. :) i used a walking foot and the guide that comes with the walking foot to make sure my lines were evenly spaced out. i love how it turned out, and am already quilting my second baby quilt as we speak.

i used my daughter's room that has awesome light as my photography set up, and i didn't get to taking it down before she came home, and now she wont let me take it down from her wall.

which is okay cause it totally matches her room. she told me she now has two hearts in her room that i made for her.

the gathered heart pillow (which i did make for her room a few years ago) and now this quilt which i guess she can have on loan for now till i need to take it to a quilt shop or something. :) okay maybe i'll just make another one!

this quilt because it only uses one fabric for the heart can be a super fast, easy to cut for quilt. if you put your heart into it you could make a few just in time to give out (or keep) for the upcoming valentines day holiday!

so what say you? do you heart it?
i heart it.
i hope you heart it too.buy PDF pattern here.
paper pattern available soon.
okay off to keep sewing and parenting...the kids went back to school today and i need to see if they have homework to tackle!
we'll talk soon.

OMGoodness! This is gorgeous! We just ordered the pattern and the fabric from the FatQuarter Shop. My 12 year old daughter saw this and she can't wait to get started. She has already announced that it will be hanging in her bedroom! Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us. We'll send you a picture when she's done with her heart quilt.

Today, I was looking through all of the craft books at our sewing store and found your book! It was really fun to look through! I work there, so I didn't buy it, but I was like... why don't I follow her blog yet?! Glad to finally find you here! :)
